Hundred Reasons find cause to break up
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 27 June 2012
Surrey punks Hundred Reasons have said they’ll end their thirteen year career in November. First Swedish House Mafia and now this? What a dark, dark week for music.
Having given word of their imminent split via an official Facebook post, the band will bid a two-part farewell to fans via final shows at Manchester’s Academy 2 (23 Nov) and London’s Forum (24 Nov). It’s not all doom and gloom though, because HR will be joined on both dates by post-hardcore quintet Hell Is For Heroes, who have just reunited after going on indefinite hiatus in 2008 and will play their ‘Neon Handshake’ album in full, and Derby legends Cable, who are reforming especially for these shows.
That statement from Hundred Reasons, who will play their entire first album ‘Ideas Above Their Station’ as part of the London and Manchester gigs, reads: “Dream line-up – bands we love, people we love. Been a while in the planning, this, but we’re seriously bloody excited about it. This is the final outing for everyone involved, so we hope you’ll join us for a properly good send-off”.
